Aromatherapy and essential oils are not restricted to a healing role or just for personal use. The therapeutic powers of essential oils can also be enjoyed communally. There are many ways to scent the different rooms in your home, to establish certain moods or a special atmosphere: a calming scent in the evenings, a more bracing version at the start of the day, an elegant fragrance for a dinner party, something seasonal at Christmas, some one's favourite scent on their birthday. You can use the oils on their own or in combination. Many essential oil manufacturers give advice and recommend suitable blends.
There are various ways you can create a scented atmosphere. Some you can make yourself: a room spray, traditional bowls of pot pourri; others are easy to find commercially; fragrances, scented candles, and ring burners. You can even wear some kind of essential oils as perfumes, but take advice first since not all of them are suitable. And they have a role in the kitchen: lemon and orange oil, used very sparingly, are traditional ingredients in delicate desserts and cakes.
